Perinatal Surveillance — Clinical Care Digital Solution
Designed and developed a perinatal surveillance information system that helps clinicians deliver coordinated care to every mother and baby. The platform captures data from multiple bedside devices and hospital systems into a single, continuously updated patient record — surfacing fetal monitoring strips alongside enterprise EMR clinical data on one screen, so clinicians can make faster, better-informed decisions during labor and delivery. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this remote patient-monitoring capability took on added importance as hospitals leaned on cloud-based virtual care to manage surge capacity while limiting clinician exposure.
